About Me


Etty Hillesum was a young Jewish woman, who died at Auschwitz on November, 30th 1943. This is a quote from her diary:
"All I want to say is this: the misery here is quite terrible and yet...I often walk with a spring in my step and time and again it soars straight from my heart...the feeling that life is glorious and magnificent, and that one day we shall be building a whole new world. Against every new outrage and every fresh horror we shall put up one more piece of love and goodness, drawing strength from within ourselves. We may suffer, but we must not succumb. "

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I enjoy people who are different from me. People who have something to teach me and who are capable of being a student themselves. I believe that there is no one culture, belief, religion or faith that has a monopoly on ALL of the truth. I have found my faith on so many avenues; the mouths of babes and in the eyes of the wise. Truth is truth no matter who speaks it.

Meditations on commitment...

I believe that the longevity and success of a relationship is based more on your level of commitment to it than anything else.  When it comes to love and marriage, people always say, "Y...

Things are not always what they seem

I firmly believe that relationships are among our most sacred gifts.  If that were not the case I think God would have just put us on our own little planets.  There would be six billion...
